What Are Recalls and Why Do They Happen? 

Every automotive manufacturer rigorously tests its vehicles before they leave the factory and make their way to dealerships around the country. But occasionally, an issue with a vehicle or its equipment is discovered later on, after more extensive use and exposure to real-world driving conditions. Manufacturers, along with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), work around the clock to monitor and respond to such issues to help keep drivers like you safe. 

The manufacturer and the NHTSA will issue a recall if a vehicle or its mechanical components, seats, or tires do not meet minimum safety standards or are found to pose an unreasonable safety risk. The manufacturer is responsible for providing necessary recall support for its customers with a repair, refund, or replacement of the recalled component(s).

How Do I Know if My BMW Has a Recall? 

You’ll receive official notice of any BMW recall that affects your vehicle via first-class mail. You can also look up recall information online with the NHTSA or with your vehicle’s manufacturer:

You may be asked to enter your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) to look up recalls for your vehicle online. You can locate your VIN on the lower driver-side corner of your windshield, on the sticker in the driver-side door jamb, or on your vehicle registration card. 

My BMW Has a Recall. What Comes Next? 

Every automotive manufacturer, including BMW, must provide recall services at no cost to the affected customers. However, only authorized dealerships can provide these complimentary services. So, if you’re notified of a recall for your BMW vehicle, you should schedule service without delay at your local BMW dealership. If you’re in Orland Park or Frankfort, you can count on the service department at BMW of Orland Park to handle your recall in a timely manner!
